Coir Blanket
Coir Mat Blankets are a solution for soil erosion. These are made with 100% coconut fiber with photodegradable or biodegradable top and bottom grids stitched together. The top and bottom PP net layers hold the coir fiber with the help of stitched yarn. Coir Blankets are also used to prevent seeds and prevent soil losses until vegetation is firmly established. Coir mats can be pre-seeded with selected seeds depending on the location. This helps to reduce the off velocity and moderate moisture and the temperature. Using coir blankets you can prevent soil compaction and crusting. It will resist wind and rain forces. These benefits accelerate vegetative development while the blankets decompose over time and become part of the soil. These coir mats have been developed for extreme slopes, high-discharge channels, and applications requiring permanent protection and reinforcement.
Due to increased public environment awareness and rising costs of repairing erosion damaged sites, erosion control have become serious considerations on all projects. Considerable sites with un-vegetated steep slopes and/ or surface drainage ways are prime targets for erosion. Each erosion control blanket/ coir mat is designed for a specified range of erosion control and revegetation conditions considering soil and environmental conditions.
Site Preparation:
Grade and shape the area of installation. If applicable, prepare seedbeds by loosening 2” to 3” of topsoil. Fertilizer is recommended prior to seeding and installation of blankets & matting’s. Make sure soil is free of rocks, wood and other obstructions so that the blankets & matting’s are in direct contact with soil.
Seeding:
In most cases, it is recommended that seeding be done prior to installation of blankets. For turf reinforcement mat and open weave matting, seeding is often done after matting installation. Best results are achieved when a veneer of soil is raked over the broadcast seeded surface. Straw or hay mulch may be added after seeding. All check slots and other areas disturbed during the installation process should be re-seeded.
Anchoring: U-shaped metal staples (11-gauge minimum, 6” to 12” long) or wooden stakes (at least 12” long) can be used to anchor blankets to the ground. Keep a minimum edge distance of 2” from the edge of the blankets to the center of the staples or stakes
